uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism

פַּ֧חַד וָ⁠פַ֛חַת הָ֥יָה לָ֖⁠נוּ הַ⁠שֵּׁ֥את וְ⁠הַ⁠שָּֽׁבֶר

(Some words not found in UHB: panic and,a_pit it_became to/for=us (the),devastation and,(the),brokenness )

These two phrases mean basically the same thing. The second emphasizes the meaning of the first by repeating the same idea with different words. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could combine them and express the emphasis in another way. Alternate translation: [We have experienced overwhelming terror and utter ruin]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

פַּ֧חַד וָ⁠פַ֛חַת הָ֥יָה לָ֖⁠נוּ הַ⁠שֵּׁ֥את וְ⁠הַ⁠שָּֽׁבֶר

(Some words not found in UHB: panic and,a_pit it_became to/for=us (the),devastation and,(the),brokenness )

If your language does not use abstract nouns for the ideas of Terror, desolation, and destruction, you could express the same ideas in other ways. Alternate translation: [Terrifying things have come to us, what makes us desolate and what destroys us]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet

פַּ֧חַד וָ⁠פַ֛חַת & הַ⁠שֵּׁ֥את וְ⁠הַ⁠שָּֽׁבֶר

(Some words not found in UHB: panic and,a_pit it_became to/for=us (the),devastation and,(the),brokenness )

The terms Terror and the pit mean similar things. Also, the terms the desolation and the destruction mean similar things. The writer is using two terms together for emphasis. If it would be clearer for your readers, you could express the emphasis with a single phrase. Alternate translation: [Overwhelming danger … utter ruin]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

הַ⁠שֵּׁ֥את וְ⁠הַ⁠שָּֽׁבֶר

(Some words not found in UHB: panic and,a_pit it_became to/for=us (the),devastation and,(the),brokenness )

The writer is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. You can supply these words from the context if that would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: [desolation and destruction have come to us] or [utter ruin has come to us]

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.

Acknowledgements: The Hebrew text, lemmas, and morphology are all thanks to the OSHB and some of the glosses are from Macula Hebrew.
